Yeah, but I have to do it using case or if statements.

big_k105 · Oct 11th, 2004, 5:17 PM

here is your code

#include <iostream>
#include <stdlib.h>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
 
 int date;
 int month;
 int year;
 char mon;
 
 cout << "Please Enter the date(EX: 1 or 2)" << endl;
 cin >> date;
 cout << "Please Enter the month(EX 1 or 2)" << endl;
 cin >> month;
 cout << "Pleae Enter the year(2004 or 2003)" << endl;
 cin >> year;
 
 if (month = 1)
 mon = "January";
 else if ( month = 2)
 mon = "February";
 else if ( month = 3)
 mon = "March";
 else if ( month = 4 )
 mon = "April";
 else if ( month = 5 )
 mon = "May";
 else if ( month = 6)
 mon = "June";
 else if ( month = 7 ) 
 mon = "July";
 else if ( month = 8 )
 mon = "August";
 else if ( month = 9 ) 
 month = "September";
 else if ( month = 10 )
 mon = "October";
 else if ( month = 11)
 mon = "November"; 
 else if ( month = 12)
 mon = "December";
 
  
 cout << date << "/" << mon << "/" << year;
   
 system("PAUSE");	
 return 0;
}

and here is mine for the same program and what i did i will point out in comments

(Toggle Plain Text)

#include <iostream>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string> // added the include of string
using namespace std;

int main()
{

 int date;
 int month;
 int year;
 string mon; // changed mon to string

 cout << "Please Enter the date(EX: 1 or 2)" << endl;
 cin >> date;
 cout << "Please Enter the month(EX 1 or 2)" << endl;
 cin >> month;
 cout << "Pleae Enter the year(2004 or 2003)" << endl;
 cin >> year;

// changed all the = to == 
 if (month == 1)
 mon = "January";
 else if ( month == 2)
 mon = "February";
 else if ( month == 3)
 mon = "March";
 else if ( month == 4 )
 mon = "April";
 else if ( month == 5 )
 mon = "May";
 else if ( month == 6)
 mon = "June";
 else if ( month == 7 )
 mon = "July";
 else if ( month == 8 )
 mon = "August";
 else if ( month == 9 )
 mon = "September"; // changed month to mon, look up in your code at this line you will see what i mean :)
 else if ( month == 10 )
 mon = "October";
 else if ( month == 11)
 mon = "November";
 else if ( month == 12)
 mon = "December";


 cout << date << "/" << mon << "/" << year << endl;

 system("PAUSE");
 return 0;
}

^^ this code works perfectly

you only had a few errors

TecBrain · Oct 11th, 2004, 5:23 PM

Thanks allot big_k105, I see the differences.

so what you did is,...mmm taking the value which is string."..." to mon.

I got it.

big_k105 · Oct 11th, 2004, 5:25 PM

no problem and then i fixed another little error where you had

(Toggle Plain Text)

month = "September";

when it was suppose to be

(Toggle Plain Text)

mon = "September";

TecBrain · Oct 11th, 2004, 5:34 PM

yeah i saw it...

Thanks.

Benoit · Oct 11th, 2004, 5:36 PM

(Toggle Plain Text)

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>

main()
{

char month[][12]={"Janary", "Febuary", "March", "April","June","July","september","October","November","December"};

int day,year,i;

scanf("%d %d %d",&day,&i,&year);
printf("\n%d/%s/%d\n",day,month[i-1],year);
system("PAUSE");
return 0;

}

TecBrain · Oct 11th, 2004, 5:40 PM

I'll keep that on mind Benoit.

Thanks.

TecBrain · Oct 12th, 2004, 3:57 AM

Ok guys, what if I want to add an if statement before that to check for the date value:

(Toggle Plain Text)

if ( date == 1)
dat = "1st";
else if ( date == 2)
dat = "2nd";
else if (date == 3)
dat = "3rd";

But it seems if I add this before

(Toggle Plain Text)

// check for valid month
if (month == 1)
mon = "January";
else if ( month == 2)
mon = "February";
else if ( month == 3)
mon = "March";
else if ( month == 4 )
mon = "April";
else if 
.
.
.
.

it wont work, I know that in VB6 you can add if and close the if as well, how can i do that with C++?

in VB6

(Toggle Plain Text)

if date = 1 then 

....

end if 

if month = 1 then

.....

end if

how can i do that.

Benoit · Oct 12th, 2004, 7:57 AM

if(date==1)
{
do this stuff
}

Remember that you use == whe comparing

You can also put && (and) and || (or) statements instead of doing an if statement for every date

if(date==1 || date==21 || date==31)
{
printf("%dst",date);
}

TecBrain · Oct 12th, 2004, 2:58 PM

Thanks Benoit. I worked it out.
